Last time in DP a little after Xmas. The bait sucked big time, half dead small anchovies. The kid at the barge said there were some sardines mixed in, I did't see one. Even with the half dead bait pulled a couple short butts on a real snotty day in the harbor mouth.
See you guys out there on Sunday. Will try to be there by 6:30. Blue revo. Matt |

Weather is looking too good to pass on this. I will make some smelt with the dip net and see look for you on the water, I usually start out south of Belmont pier and work to the north, hopefully the "Current Gods" are with me. and make a nice drift,

Hey Maui Jim,
Are you talking about LB? I think that MtnByker, Ericko and I are gonna be at DP. Comon down to DP. Unless MtnByker is willing to go to Long Beach. I kind of committed to DP, but can change if needed. I used to go catch bait at that pier with a Sabiki and chum with bread. Do you ever catch smelt from your kayak? All I've ever caught on a Sabiki are sardines and macs. Would be nice to get a few smelt for the flatties. Matt |

Gotta find the right size Smelt which can be the tricky part. I caught 5 or 6 fish in early Dec. on Smelt near the Queen Mary. There is a boat launch ramp about 1/4 mile upstream that you can launch at, but it costs $12 for the day. They do have a free wash station though.

I use the sailboat area launch and parking is free from the street. ( I'm cheap free launch/free bait) easy parking in the early morning, they use to have a water source, but its was disconnected when they rebuilt the restrooms but the showers work for the rods.... I live about 10-15 minutes from there. The winds should die down Sat. afternoon, should be a spring like day on Sun.
